New Jets QB Bryce Petty believes he's been "trending upward" the last two years, but he's not looking at Sunday as an individual audition. He's thinking about team goals. He said his goal is to play well "for these guys in the locker room, it's for Josh (McCown). He set a standard as to how to be a professional, how to be a quarterback."
